The probability of an economic decline in the year 2020 is 0.23. There is a probability of 0.64 that we will elect a republican president in the year 2020. If we elect a republican president, there is a 0.35 probability of an economic decline. Let "D" represent the event of an economic decline, and "R" represent the event of election of a Republican president. Use this information to answer the following four questions:
1 Are R and D independent events?
2 What is the probability of electing a Republican president and an economic decline in 2020?
3 If we experience an economic decline in 2016, what is the probability that a Republican president will have been elected in 2020?
4 What is the probability of economic decline or a Republican president elected in 2020 or both?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1) D and R are NOT independent events

2) The probability of electing a Republican president and an economic decline in 2020 is 0.224

3) If we experience an economic decline in 2016, the probability that a Republican president will have been elected in 2020 is 0.9739

4) the probability of economic decline or a Republican president elected in 2020 or both is 0.646

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "D" represent the event of an economic decline, and "R" represent the event of election of a Republican president

Given that;

P(D) = 0.23

P(R) = 0.64

Conditional P(D | R) =  0.35

1) Are R and D independent events?

we know that two events A & B are independent events if; P(B | A) = P(B)

here, P(D | R) =  0.35 and P(D) = 0.23

so; P(D | R) ≠ P(D)

Therefore D and R are NOT independent events

2) The probability of electing a Republican president and an economic decline in 2020;

we know that;

P(D | R) = P(D ∩ R) / P(R)

we substitute

0.35 = P(D ∩ R) / 0.64

P(D ∩ R) = 0.35 × 0.64

P(D ∩ R)  = 0.224

Therefore, The probability of electing a Republican president and an economic decline in 2020 is 0.224

3) If we experience an economic decline in 2016, what is the probability that a Republican president will have been elected in 2020?

P(R | D) = P(D ∩ R) / P(D)

we substitute

P(R | D) = 0.224 / 0.23

P(R | D) = 0.9739

Therefore, If we experience an economic decline in 2016, the probability that a Republican president will have been elected in 2020 is 0.9739

4) the probability of economic decline or a Republican president elected in 2020 or both

P(D ∪ R) = P(D) + P(R) - P(D ∩ R)

we subtitute

P(D ∪ R) = 0.23 + 0.64 - 0.224

P(D ∪ R)  = 0.646

Therefore, the probability of economic decline or a Republican president elected in 2020 or both is 0.646

One winter day, the temperature in Houston is 8 Celsius. Find the temperatures in these other cities. Explain or show your reasoning.
In Orlando, it is 17 warmer than it is in Houston
In Salt Lake City, it is 18 colder than it is in Houston
In Minneapolis, it is 25 colder than it is in Houston
In Fairbanks, it is 12 colder than it is in Minneapolis
Write an addition equation that represents the relationship between the temperature in Houston and the temperature in Fairbanks.

Answers

Orlando = 25° because 17+8
Salt Lake city = -10° because 8-18
Minneapolis = -17° because 8-25
Fairbanks = -29° because -17-12

Houston = 8° - 37° = Fairbanks

Hence, the temperatures in these other cities are

Orlando is [tex]25[/tex] degree

Salt Lake is [tex]-10[/tex] degree

Minneapolis is [tex]-17[/tex] degree

Fairbanks is [tex]-29[/tex] degree

What is the degree?

A degree, usually denoted by °, is a measurement of a plane angle in which one full rotation is [tex]360[/tex] degrees.

Here given that,

One winter day, the temperature in Houston is [tex]8[/tex] Celsius.

In Orlando, it is [tex]17[/tex] warmer than it is in Houston.

In Salt Lake City, it is [tex]18[/tex] colder than it is in Houston.

In Minneapolis, it is [tex]25[/tex] colder than it is in Houston.

In Fairbanks, it is [tex]12[/tex] colder than it is in Minneapolis.

So, it would be

Orlando = [tex]25[/tex] degree

because [tex]17+8=25[/tex] degree

Salt Lake city [tex]= -10[/tex] degree

because [tex]8-18=-10[/tex] degree

Minneapolis [tex]= -17[/tex] degree

because [tex]8-25=-17[/tex] degree

Fairbanks [tex]= -29[/tex] degree

because [tex]-17-12=-29[/tex] degree

Hence, the temperatures in these other cities are

Orlando is [tex]25[/tex] degree

Salt Lake is [tex]-10[/tex] degree

Minneapolis is [tex]-17[/tex] degree

Fairbanks is [tex]-29[/tex] degree

Suppose you know that ∠S and ∠Y are complementary, and that m∠S = 4(m∠Y) − 210°. Find m∠Y.

Answers

Answer:

angle Y= 60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

angle S + angle Y = 90 degrees because they are complementary

Y = 90 - S

angle S = 4(Y)-210

substitute for Y

S = 4(90 - S) - 210

S = 360 - 4S - 210

reduce

5S = 150

S = 30

Y = 90 - 30 = 60

Write a rule for a function with a parabolic graph that contains the x-intercepts (-20,0) and (40,0) and a maximum point whose y-coordinate is 30.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the x-intercepts are -20 and 40, the line of symmetry is x = (-20 + 40)/2 = 10.

Now we have y = a(x - 10)² + 30, where a is an unknown constant. We can find a by using an x-intercept point.

=> (0) = a[(40) - 10]² + 30

=> 900a + 30 = 0, a = -1/30.

Hence the rule is y = -(x - 10)²/30 + 30.

Write the coordinates as decimals or integers.

Answers

Answer:

In decimal 0.428571428

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) y2 = 16, y1 = 19x2=2 and x1=9

The slope = (16 - 19)/(2 -9)

The slope = (-3)/(-7)

The slope = 0.428571428

So in decimal form the coordinates are going to be written as 0.428571428

Slope is the steepness of a line, it is the difference between the y coordinates divided by the difference in x coordinates.
